Consumer Description

I HAVE A 2007 SUZUKI FORENZA, SHORTLY AFTER I GOT IT I NOTICED IT WOULD CUT OFF WHEN I TURNED THE A/C ON. IF I LEAVE THE A/C ON IT JERKS AND STRUGGLES TO REACH THE POSTED SPEED LIMIT. ASIDE FROM THAT ISSUE WHILE DRIVING THE CAR DOESN'T CHANGE GEARS WELL AND RPM SHOOTS WAY UP AND THE CAR DRAGS. THIS IS VERY DANGEROUS AND HAS CAUSED ME TO ALMOST BE INVOLVED IN MULTIPLE ACCIDENTS. I DO NOT FEEL SAFE WITH MY CHILDREN NOR MY SELF DRIVING THIS CAR. SOMETHING NEEDS TO BE DONE ABOUT THIS DEFECT BEFORE SOMEONE GETS HURT. WHEN THIS OCCURRED I WAS ATTEMPTING TO TURN AND CAR WOULDN'T ACCELERATE AT THAT POINT I PANICKED AND REALIZED I HAD THE PEDAL ALL THE WAY DOWN AND IT STILL WOULD NOT GO. THEN ALL OF A SUDDEN IT MADE A BIG CLUNK AND JERK AND SLOWLY PULLED OFF. I WAS ON A BUSY INTERSECTION BETWEEN TWO HIGHWAYS. THIS IS VERY DANGEROUS AND DOES NEED IMMEDIATE ATTENTION. *TR
